Re: I never realized how horrible Skrillex was until now

*At the Goldenvoice Executive Board Room - AKA Paul's studio apartment*
Intern: So I kept trying to call Daft Punk's agent, but they said they aren't ready yet.Tollet shoots the intern in the face.
Intern #2: Sir, I've already spoken with Skrillex's people and they would love to close out the main stage on both Friday, this could definitely help sell out both weekends. He said he'd do it for free if we allow KoRn in the Mojave tent Saturday night any hour time slot from 8pm till the end of the festival.*Tollet reflects briefly*
Intern #3: And Bassnectar said he would love to play again too! I read it on his twitter!*Tollet shoots intern #3, while intern #2 shakes with fear.*
Tollet: Skrillex, eh.... Dani, what sayeth "The Board"*Dani writes the answer on a post-it and passes it to intern #4.
Intern #4 reads the note, slowly: "People will make several threads of distaste, but most likely will still go."
Tollet: Excellent! Skrillex on the main it is, oh and get Datsik to close the Sahara again!

Perhaps Skrillex himself wanted her on the lineup? Despite the shit music he produces, I think he actually has decent musical tastes (he did in fact state that his all-time favorite track is Aphex Twin- Flim)

Re: I never realized how horrible Skrillex was until now

The only two times I've knowingly heard Skrillex were a) briefly seeing some of his set at Coachella 2011. Confused, not entirely disgusted by what I heard and b) the song that Beavis and Butthead make fun of.

So, if I were to listen to Skrillex to determine on my own his relative worth, what should I be listening to?

One of his newest tracks, and one of the least annoying in my opinion:
